SWINE MARKET IS BUOYANT! SHIPPERS HOPE HIGH PRICES

By WILLIAM SANBORN. The fact that the hog markets of the cuntry took an upward swing last week, and were described as buoyant on Saturday, has had a cheering effect on the farm population, who are hopeful of still higher price levels. Corn and oats have also ruled higher than in some weeks, and this despite the threatened coal tie up, the unsettled conditions in the steel districts and strikes pending in various trades all over the map. The latest proposed strike affecta milk distribution in the east. Milkwagon drivers have told their New York bosses that nothing less than $50 will go in future and the dairymen are trying to compromise in order to prevent a walkout by more than 6,000 milk handlers. The hog markets opened strong at Chicago on Friday last, and kept advancing moderately all day. Friday's average level at $13.82 was $1.30 high- . er than the average on the low day a week previous and the top was $14.20. All markets again took an upward wing at the opening on Saturday, and was excited at the close with sales ranging rfom 25c to 50c over Friday's prices at Chicago, the top on light butchers being $14.60. Indianapolis went Chicago one better, for there were general sales made of good medium weights at $14.50. and a top of $14.75 was scored on several lots. Compared with $13.25 for top on all weights on Saturday, October 23. this shows an advance in tops of $1.50 during the week ending Saturday, Nov. 1. Shippers Bid Prices Up. The demand at Indianapolis was " ereater than the supply on Friday and Saturday, as to hogs, but not as to cattle. The packers are held up by strikes and cattle and veals were in heavier receipt than expected. The sharp advances on the first of the week were all wiped out on cattle from Thursday on. but shippers cleaned out all the hogs at advancing prices, as noted. The conditions at Chicago were much much the same. Shippers were active buyers of hogs on both Friday und Saaturday and receipts were limited. Average weight of hogs was the lightest since June. The very choicest grade of cattle have ruled without material change for several days at Chicago, but ordinary cattle have lost pen with buyers.

Wilson and Ca.. paid $19.43 for some fancy steers last Tuesday, but comparatively few steers have been good enough to bring up to $18.50 for several days. While the cattle market was nominally unchanged, the bulk of sales ranged from 50c to $1.50 lower on Saturday, compared with prices on October 25th. The week's receipts, at 103,100 head were within about 6.000 of the record, made in November 1918, and was a depressing factor, but it is worth noting that the average weierhts were the same, at 229 pounds. THE GLEN MILLER MARKET. Owing to continuous rains last week, and the fact that the cross roads and farm lanes became impassable for heavy trucks, the receipts were light at Glen Miller yards. As the rains were heavy over the central west the same conditions applied pretty generally to receiving markets, particularly applying to ship-

ments from the prarie states and all

mudroad sections. Rome Shurley said: "As a result of light, receipts hogs advanced $1 or more, scoring a top of $13 for prime

heavies against $12 paid a week ago, with medium and light packers selling at 10c to 11c. A lot of 125 fat

back Poland China pigs, fed by William Dorgan on the Tom Conniff farm, and which averaged 140 pounds, topped the local market on lights, at $11.50 per hundred. 'The cattle market was about steady, last week, on account of a butchers' strike in the east, and with tanners refusing to establish a price on hides. Veal calves were lower, choice selling up to $15, with lambs and sheep very dull at $5 to $10 per hundred." The largest delivery for the week was made by William Dorgan, who collected $2,773 for 142 head. Harry Wise, of Palestine, Ohio marketed 31 hogs which weighed 7,960 pounds and brought 12 cents. Roy Morris, of Pleasant Kill, brought in 30 spring pigs, which netted him 13 cents, on

I Saturday, on which day Homer Heck, of Hollansburg cashed In $994 on 31 I hoes which weighed 7,800 pounds. M.

E. Morris received $896 for 38 head of spring pigs on Tuesday. The receipts last week were 400 hogs, 24 head of cattle, 34 veals and 13 lambs. Thirty cars were handled on through billing during the week, containing 332 head of cattle and 43 horses. Deliveries were made during the week by Floyd Hunt, A. Engle, Fred Evans, Homer Austehman, Homer Heck, G. Scanttance, Floyd Bogan,Everett Reid, Iran Moore, Elbert Kemp, Roy Nonis, Russel Minor, Fred Hartman, F. E.

PROHIBITION BREEDER OF RADICALISM, IS CONTENTION

NEW YORK, Nov. 3. Prohibition is largely responsible for the "alarming increase" of radicalism in the United States, according to a statement tonight iy the Association Opposed to National Prohibition. This charge, it was asserted, is founded on an "investigation of conditions in eleven Western states." Claiming that union men as a rule first pass resolutions demanding the return of beer and light wine and then turn to radical organizations, the statement asserts "all I. W. W. leaders are earnest advocates of prohibition." The investigation, it was claimed, also disclosed that the number of dm? addicts is vastly increased under prohibition and that corruption of politics is greater "since a new source of graft has been developed."

The area of the Sahara desert is almost as great as that of the United States.

STATE HEAD OF FARM LEAGUE TO TALK AT WEBSTER

All members of the Wayne county branch of the State Federation of Farmers' associations are invited to attend the meeting in Webster, Wednesday night, at 7 o'clock. The meeting, originally called for members of the Webster township organization, was changed to a county meeting when it was found that Frank G. Brown, of Monon, president of the state federation, would speak. Approximately 73 new members were taken into the county branch during the last week according to reports made at the meeting of farmers Saturday night. This boosts the membership to 600. The goal is a 100 percent organization. Farmers of Abington township will meet in Abington Tuesday evening.

Silk Hose Only Wear With Most of City's Girls Where are the cotton hose of yester-year? According to a shoe salesman, who daily fits dozens of pairs of women's shoes, only about one woman in ten now wears cotton hose. They wear silk, or, if they are very much up on fashions, they wear all wool hose, for you must know that these are the last gasp in fashionable hosiery. "Now isn't that sensible?" exclaims grandmother, who remembers when every winter night was, spent knitting warm worsted stockings for her eight children. But it isn't because wool stockings are sensible that young women wear them. In fact, manufacturers have woven a Joker into them, for many are dropstitched and are supposed to be worn only with lowcut oxfords. Beside the all-wool there are hose of silk and wool mixture. One advantage of wool hosiery over silk, is that there is no luxury tax on them despite the fact that they cost as high as $7.50 a pair in the cities where they are obtainable at all. In Richmond women all-silk hose are faithfully climbing the H. C. L. ladder to play nip and tuck with the shoe prices themselves. There Is such a demand for silken hose that the question is not, will they sell at 3 times their former price, but can dealers secure enough to supply trade? The problem of getting any stockings at a reasonable price is a serious one. Ordinary cotton lisle hose sell for from 50 cents to $1.25 for "out size" pairs. All-wool ones are $2.50 to $7.50; silk, with cotton tops, are $2; all-silk, from $3 up, mostly up.

"One day I read about what a man said about Dreco taking a load off hia back which felt like a ton of brick and I laughed at it but I now know that every word he said came from the bottom of his heart." declared Mr. H. E. Fleck, a car inspector who lives at 2006 North F St., Richmond, Ind. "I want to tell everyone what Dreco has done for me. I was so bent from suffering I was afraid I would be permanently deformed, as the rheumatism had such a hold on me. My back and limbs were sore and stiff; muscles were drawn and the Joints seemed to be dry: my nerves were shot to pieces so that I could not sleep; I had shooting pains in my back and side. Really I was in bad shape, but Dreco has certainly proven a blessing to me as I know more relief from pain now than in years: I can bend about and stoop over without the slightest pain; sleep sound at ni?ht; getting stronger day by day. I strongly advise sufferers to try Dreco and they wont be disappointed. No medicine introduced here has sprung into such favor as Dreco. Hardly a day passes but what some person drops in and tells of the excellent results Dreco has produced for them. It cleanses the system of impurities, increases the appetite and sends new energy bounding through every nerve; it restores the kidneys (o healthy action and makes the slug

nerves and promoies sound, refreshing sleep. It acts on the blood and banishes catarrh and rheumatism from ft he system. Mr. Powers, the well known Dreco expert, has headquarters at the Conkey Drug Co. to meet the local public and explain the merits of this great remedy. See him today. Adv.

IN discussing the Standard Oil Company, a well-known lawyer said: "The underlying causes of whatever trouble this organization may have had are to be found in its efficiency and its advanced methods, which make competition difficult. As a producer and distributor of petrotroleum products the Standard Oil Company leads the world." It is a matter of pride to those responsible to the 4649 stockholders that the Standard Oil Company ( I ndiana) has been able to so operate its business as to insure a maximum production of useful products at a minimum of cost, and it has always been the policy of the Company to sell its products to the consumer at a minimum price. During the past five years when the industries of the world have been disorganized by war, and the cost of production has been increased tremendously the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) by reason of its advanced methods has been able to keep the price of petroleum products at so low a point that the people of America can afford to use the output of the Company in ever increasing quantities, while elsewhere in the world only the wealthy can enjoy the comforts of these commodities. This condition has been brought about by largely increased facilities, and by careful conservation of raw materials. Thus, in spite of tremendous increases in cost of crude oil and labor, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has been able to fulfill its obligations in a manner satisfactory and beneficial to the stockholder, the employee and the public.
